I just watched Passengers and while it had potential to go somewhere good it got lost among the generic disaster in space stuff in the third act and completely glossed over the fact that Chris Pratt's character was a hugely manipulative knobhead. It should really have focused on exploring the relationship of the two leads, the dynamic of having the only person you'll ever interact with again being the same person who put you in that position (and the moral dilemma preceding it) was interesting/compelling enough to carry the film without reverting to sci-fi cliché in the ending. Also Lawrence Fishburne doesn't deserve to be reduced to a ten minute walking plot device.
